In his mind

Burns the picture of a girl

Lost in time

Just one lie had changed his world

His dreams were gone

And she won't be back again

This time he's sure

She's playin' a game, playin'



Mind games, mind games

She was playin' with his heart

Mind games, never change

And it's tearin' him apart



In her eyes

There's a hurt that just won't heal

And she cries

For the love she's lost and her heart

No longer feels the fire

She can never get it back again

Wounds never heal

At night, she remembers the pain

Remembers the pain of



Mind games, mind games

He was playin' with her heart

Mind games, never change

And it's tearin' her apart



Mind games, mind games

How were they to know that

They were caught up in this game

That hurts so bad?



As the years go by

They see the mistakes they've made

Now they're payin' the price

All the games they played

They should have known it from the start

It's the game of broken hearts



Yes, it's gone

And it won't be back again

Late at night

Time after time

They remember the pain

Remember the pain, playin'



Mind games, they're all the same

It's the game of broken hearts

Mind games, never change

And it's tearin' them apart



Mind games, mind games

How were they to know that

They were caught up in this game

That hurts so bad?

Caught up in this game

That hurts so bad

Caught up in this game

That hurts so bad
